The Ocean Empire Lands!
51st year of the Ocean Calendar.
Central Continent, South China Sea.
Led by Atlas, the son of the Son of the Twin Kings, the Ocean Army landed from the southeastern sea, and the country occupying the southeastern sea coast was a powerful civilization.
The god of this civilized country is called the God of Fortune. According to the investigation by the Ocean Empire, the only candidate who meets this criterion is Gambler 029.
Their guess was correct; the country entrenched on the southeast coast was the civilization of gambler Zhang Yuanqing.
As is widely known, Zhang Yuanqing only has one ability.
That's Two-Sided Probability.
Everything can be judged from two perspectives; success or failure is left to luck.
When the enemy arrived, Zhang Yuanqing tossed a coin. Whether they could repel the enemy depended not on national strength or technology, but entirely on this coin!
The coin was tossed up and then fell back down.
The final result referred to is...
"Back?"
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yuanqing immediately spoke to the king, ordering him to pack his bags and flee with his men overnight!
The king was very obedient and, without saying a word, immediately led his men and fled!
The whole country was thrown into turmoil. The king led the way and fled, and the rest of the people followed suit.
When Atlas arrived with his army, the place was already deserted.
Seeing this, Atlas did not continue its advance, but instead occupied the land that Zhang Yuanqing had originally occupied, incorporating it into the territory of the Ocean Empire.
Thus, they finally gained a foothold on the Central Continent.
It is worth mentioning that Li Yuan was not originally born on the Central Continent, but on another continent.
That continent was much smaller than the Central Continent, so let's call it Continent Two.
Li Yuan possessed a land-based kingdom on the Continent Two, but not on the Central Continent, which is why they were constantly on the move, trying to find a breakthrough to land.
After that, Atlas continued to lead his troops on expeditions south and north.
They chased after them, while Zhang Yuanqing ran ahead, and soon they encountered other civilizations.
That civilization was allied with Zhang Yuanqing, and the god behind them was Arthur.
After learning that the Ocean Army were attacking from behind, Arthur initially wanted to join forces with Zhang Yuanqing to try and fight back.
As a result, the first city was breached after only a short time.
Taking this opportunity, Zhang Yuanqing tossed another coin, and it still came back tails.
Now Arthur had no choice but to run away. Zhang Yuanqing and Arthur headed south, and by sheer coincidence, they encountered elves.
They found the Sacred Tree City, as well as the Thousand Throat and the Centaur.
The various factions converged and established themselves directly at the foot of the Sacred Tree City.
This move plunged Sacred Tree City into the center of the vortex.
The elves were already at war with the decapitators, whose army came from the west and left nothing but destruction in their wake.
The Decapitator's available abilities are sacrifice and summoning Death.
They sacrificed livestock and humans along the way, frequently summoning the Grim Reaper, and their army was invincible and unstoppable!
Even with the combined efforts of the three elves, they couldn't withstand Death's fierce onslaught.
As the battle situation became increasingly unfavorable, Zhang Yuanqing and Arthur came running over. At first, they thought it was the enemy, but later they found out that it was their ally.
But before they could even rejoice, Zhang Yuanqing and his companion revealed an unfortunate truth.
They were chased all the way here by the Ocean Army!
In other words, the Ocean Army are about to arrive here!
The ancient tree is 53 years old.
The Ocean Army arrived and encountered the Death God Army. After a brief exchange, the two sides reached a temporary alliance.
They will share the five crowns together.
Opinions among the elves were divided; some said to fight them to the bitter end, while others said to run away as soon as possible.
However, the Death God Army and the Ocean Army completely surrounded the Sacred Tree City, leaving them with nowhere to retreat.
However, if it came to a battle, even if the five gods combined their strength, they would not be able to defeat the army of the two opposing gods.
In the end, all they could do was delay as much as possible.
They wanted to delay until a variable occurred.
Arthur's available ability is Absolute Sever, but he cannot use it himself, so he can only extend the Absolute Sever property to a weapon and give it to his human subordinates.
Here, Arthur's men are responsible for using Absolute Sever to intercept Death.
Because death is immortal, it can only be broken apart by Absolute Sever.
Zhang Yuanqing, on the other hand, frantically tossed coins, trying every possible way to gain a glimmer of hope.
Centaurs and Thousandthroat used their combined orc army and beasts to form a beast tide on the perimeter, constantly intercepting the attacks of both sides.
The remaining elves mixed with the human army to form the main force.
Even so, the situation continued to deteriorate day by day.
"We have done our best, and how long we can hold on... is entirely up to fate."
The Ocean Calendar 60 years old.
Atlas kept thinking of countermeasures. This Five Gods Alliance was a tough nut to crack, and it wouldn't be easy to break through.
Just as initially envisioned, there are many alliances of countries in the South China Sea. Although their overall strength is not strong, their combined strength should not be underestimated.
If they hadn't joined forces with the Death God Army, they might not have been able to take down those five crowns.
However, since the alliance was only verbal, both sides tacitly agreed on one thing.
There are five crowns, how could they be divided equally?
So they didn't want to divide it equally; they wanted to wipe out the other side after the war ended.
Both sides shared this view, so they were both intentionally minimizing casualties and preserving their strength in order to annihilate the enemy after breaching the Sacred Tree City.
But neither side is stupid; you conserve your strength, and I conserve mine, and the pace of the game quickly slowed down.
The Five Gods Alliance also gained a chance to catch their breath.
Atlas pondered this for a long time before finally implementing the decision to besiege the city and divide its territory.
They built a city on the spot, incorporating the entire area into the territory of the Ocean Empire, surrounding the Sacred Tree City in the center, isolating it, and gradually eroding it away.
When the decapitators saw their actions, they immediately understood what the Ocean Army meant.
"Want to eat alone?"
They surrounded the area, cutting off the city's food supply and all external development, and gradually annexed the other side over time.
The plan is good, but how could the decapitator be willing to accept it?
So he also divided the land, with each side occupying half, thus trapping the Sacred Tree City in the corner between the two countries' territories.
The elves, besieged on all sides, were in dire straits; they were now utterly helpless.
All they could do was find a comfortable position and wait for death to come.
However, Atlas relayed the message back to the Ocean Empire, where Ocean Empire continued to arrive.
The population of the Ocean Empire far exceeds that of the Beheaders.
As this situation continues to shift, the situation on the side of the decapitator becomes dangerous.
So the beheader made a tough decision and directly contacted the Golden King in his country's rear to form an alliance!
